    I wonder if Network Rail have asked WCRC to inspect the line for further slippages, possibly taking some of the P-Way team as instantly a quicker method than by road (of which many sound to be flooded).

    Are the passengers still on board? I ask because Carlisle - Carnforth - Hellifield - York feels to me like at least 2.5 hours by a direct route and it's getting late......I'd bet that the train goes straight from Leeds to York and Wakefield/Normanton folk make their own way from Leeds.

    National Rail have tweeted that they expect disruption until 13:00 tomorrow and in the meantime trains will reach Ribblehead and then buses will be used Ribblehead to Carlisle.

    BIL blasts over Dandry Mire heading for the summit, showering us with fine cinders in the process!! Too warm and too near the summit for any exhaust.
    Glad we didn't wait it out for the return, the thunder storm put us off. P1100917.JPG
